I loved optifast, weird I know lol but I mixed some of them with less water and my fav crystal light so they were a pudding consistancy and ate it with a spoon so it felt like I was eating....

Tammy good luck actually the first week was a breeze for me no problems. This second week has been rough as I have been sick and not been able to get my 4 shakes in a day. You will do great. 
I have 4 more days left then my big day so I will keep the bench warm for you and Trudy!!

Today is my last day of 3 weeks of Optifast.  I liked it and have had no problems.  It's been fun mixing them with different Crystal Lite flavours or DaVinci syrup flavours and combinations to make them.   Also experiment with more or less ice and water to make them thick like ice cream or pudding or thinner like a slushy or like milk.  The hardest part for me was the first few days when you feel a little hungry but as your body gets use to it the hunger isn't a problem.  Best wishes and see you on the bench in a couple of weeks!

Good Luck Tammy - don't worry about what others have said - wait and see for yourself. After all, I've read posts from a few people who didn't find it bad tasting at all! Either way, just think of it as a tool you're using on your journey and keep your eyes on the prize!!!!!

I like the Optifast, especially chocolate.  I would say try it without adding anything first see how you feel.  Try the vanilla first, it's sweet, like cake batter (sort of) and it's better with ice.  Chocolate just rocks!!!  I wish I had've had all chocolate!
